We are getting up to 8 tables on Weds and some players missing. We once used to get 15 or 16 tables but that's decades ago - do come along ( and bring a friend )..! The hall still has capacity for more.

Beeny ( and Foulger ) Cup

Wednesday 18th September saw the end of the Beeny Cup year. This relates to average results for the third Wednesday session of every calendar month ( although this is sometimes adjusted for House closures or parties ). Results are now posted under Competitions on the menu list. Congratulations to Terry and Reggie for winning the Beeny ( by a tiny margin! ) and to Kevin and Peter Laws for coming second and winning the Foulger Cup.

For this season, we are introducing a handicapped competition for the Foulger Cup ( Beeny still for top pair ) which will depend on your current and comparative NGS ( National Grading Scheme ) scores. This is working now ( with some teething troubles ) and can be viewed under Competitions.

We've included all pairs in the second list of results shown for 2023/24 but remember, for future events, that you need to play at least 6 times with the same partner over the 12 months to qualify.

Hosting: We have re-instated our hosting system meaning that visitors can be sure of a game when they attend. Ivy will be asking members to offer to be host ( on a Wednesday afternoon ) from time to time. The only person who will ever not get a game will be the host who will get a free game subsequently should that happen. We would still be grateful if potential players call first and we will arrange a partner prior to the date. Contact Denise Mabey by email at denise.mabey@hotmail.com
